Jay Leno's Garage is known for showing us things we may have not known about previously. This is proven with the video I am about to show you today.
Although some of you may know of Don Panoz if you're a racing fanatic, his production cars are not seen very often. That's because there aren't many of them on the road. Seeing an Esperante on the road is like seeing a Unicorn.
While its exterior styling may be dated and its interior kit car-ish, it is a vehicle built for super enthusiasts that lust for speed and speed only. The Spyder GT prototype seen in the video below produces just over 475 horsepower from a Ford 5.0-liter V8, but if you so desire you can go crazy with a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 good for 800 horsepower.
Take an up-close look at the car designed to celebrate Panoz' 25th anniversary.
